You need to check your programme but mine allowed for water (with or without sugar free flavour enhancers), a few slices of citrus fruits makes for a refreshing drink, milk, decaf tea, decaf coffee, protein shakes of course, milk, clear broth or bouillon. No carbonated drinks.

Slim & Save Water Flavourings, Pure Flavour and Volvic, Stur and other sugar free water flavourings are all worth trying.

Hi, I'm now in week 3 and taking fluids and blended smooth soups but struggling with variety...any suggestions? Also i'm not sure if this is normal but I do t seem to have lost weight? Am I expecting to much to soothe :-/

That will change soon Stella - the liquid/pureed phase can get a little old but it won't be long before you'll be on the next phase. In the meantime, take a look at The World According to Eggface - she has some great pureed recipes.

Don't worry about the scales - they'll just drive you nuts. Follow the programme and the weight will come off.
